Job Description: Chief of Staff (Strategic Partner to the CEO)

Location: Ahmedabad, India (On-site)

Reports to: Chetan Parikh, CEO

The Mission

RAAPID is on a mission to "Disrupt Medical Coding" through the development and use of Neuro-Symbolic AI. As Chief of Staff, you are the primary engine behind the CEO's productivity. Your goal is to amplify Chetan's impact by managing the "mundane," driving accountability across the executive team, and ensuring that our core values-Integrity, Empathy, and Innovation - are lived at every level of the organization.

Key Responsibilities: The "Right Hand" Mandate

- Strategic Prioritization: Act as the "Gatekeeper of Time," ensuring the CEO is focused exclusively on high-value accounts (payors and providers) and critical integrations (EPIC, Azure, Snowflake).

- Operational Accountability: Lead daily stand-ups to track "Action Items." You must be the "strict enforcer" of the Do, Delegate, or De-prioritize framework to ensure zero lag in execution.

- Executive Mirror: You have the authority and the obligation to provide the CEO with "hard truths," calling out distractions (like social media or low-impact emails) to protect the mission's momentum.

- Cross-Functional Deep Dives: Gather status reports from Engineering, Product, and Finance, presenting the CEO with a "Pulse Check" so he can mentor leaders effectively without getting lost in the weeds.

Qualifications: The "Seasoned" Profile

- Proven Track Record: At least 5-8 years of experience as a Chief of Staff or Strategic Operations Lead for a successful, high-growth technology entrepreneur.

- Elite Education: MBA or advanced degree from a top-tier institution (IIT, IIM, or equivalent global Tier-1 university).

- Industry Experience: Prior experience in a VC-backed SaaS or AI company. Experience in Healthcare IT is a significant advantage but not required.

- Master of Discipline: Exceptional organizational skills with a "roll up the sleeves" mentality. You don't just organize the list; you get the work done on the CEO's behalf.

- Cultural Alignment: You must possess high emotional intelligence (Empathy) to build trust while maintaining the "strict" discipline required to hyperscale.

Why RAAPID?

- Backed by Microsoft and UPMC: We are a Microsoft Pegasus Elite startup with deep validation from industry giants.

- Foundational Values: We prioritize the well-being of our team and their families above all else.

- Hyper-Growth: We are currently scaling from $5M to $15M+ ARR and building the leadership core that will take us to a billion-dollar valuation.

Our Values in Action

"Integrity towards oneself and one's family is our #1 value. Once that is settled, we focus on the mission with intent, intensity and a 'can-do' attitude." - Chetan Parikh, CEO.
